Wrap it! Not only is it easier to change when you want, but it protects your stock paint if you ever want to go back to that as well.

Oh im glad to see our color goes well with the gloss of the CF. My installer wanted me to remove that piece to wrap it and the roof seperate. Can you get me details if yours done this or not? Because it looks good how ever it was done, and I would like to avoid that if possible. Im thinking of doing the roof matte black.

First they clayed the whole car and fix loads of road chips I had on my front bumper, as even a smallest road chip will show from the sticker. Then the parts which they removed are bumpers, fenders, spolier and sides to wrap it properly. Rest there is no need to open the other parts.

For my roof I painted it before and I like the shinny aspect of it specially when it looks like a one piece with a darker tint on rear window.

As few know I ordered Seibon TS hood back in November which kind of damaged in shipping so I am going for custom with vents in CF, wanted to do it when I had my previous kit but dropped the idea now I think is the best time, will wrap it all in gray

It will be more like this picture which I did sometime back

No I actually cant find much online when I look. My installer let me go through all of his books, and color swatches.

Doc that hood will be mean, you should mold and sell it!

another question.. are they using 3M? cause i heared it not that good!!

in Bahrain the shops give usually 5 years warranti!!

Its 3M, I got the wrap from US, and paying installer only 2000dh. 3M gives a long warranty of 7 years on this. I checked with people including mike(bullit) and everyone seems to be happy with 3M. And second I couldn't get this colour in Oracal which is a nice company as well.

People here in Dubai do the whole wrap from 1000dh to 8000dh.
